This paper analyzes the Polish model of ensuring the legal and correct performance of imprisonment and other forms of detention as aresponse to crime. Key issues include indications of: supervision criteria, the range of supervisory powers and the role of the judge in the implementation of imprisonment. The analyzed solutions are very original in their character. They reflect many years of experience of the Polish penitentiary system and constitute amodern part of penitentiary law.

The article focuses on new solutions in the Executive Penal Code relating to the procedure for qualifying for a group of dangerous prisoners and the range associated with the qualification constraints and their possible modification. Prisoners posing a serious social threat or a serious risk to the safety of penitentiary institutions are a special group of people criminally isolated. They are aggressive and deeply demoralized prisoners, the most dangerous perpetrators of crime and the persons directly involved, and often holding managerial positions, within the framework of organized crime. In practice of the functioning of the penitentiary they are a real threat to the proper functioning and security of prisons.

The study concerns mandatory conditions for cancelling the conditional suspension of sentence. The provision referred to concerns Article 75§1 of the Polish Penal Code which has been declared unconstitutional from the perspective of the judgment of the Constitutional Tribunal of 17 July 2013. This ruling shall trigger a whole series of consequences regarding conditional suspension of sentence and other similar regulations in the criminal law.

The paper focuses on the problems associated with the instigation and closure of enforcement proceedings concerning restriction of liberty. In the case of restriction of liberty, the moments in question are regulated by several separate provisions: Article 57a of the Criminal Enforcement Code, Article 64 of the Criminal Enforcement Code and Article 83 of the Criminal Code. The starting date of the restriction of liberty sentence period is by no means obvious and leads to very individual problems. Precise indication of this date is crucial to the determination of the date of the end of the sentence period as well as legal consequences associated with this date.

The article analyses the aims of application and implementation of temporary arrest and it focuses mainly on normative issues. The presentation of data concerning the application of temporary arrest in Poland since 1999 until the present time is an important supplementation of the theoretical deliberation. Reflecting upon the data analysis, one may say that Poland is one of the European countries which rarely apply temporary arrest. This thesis contradicts the common opinion that temporary arrest is overused in Poland.

A particularly severe restriction of the right of individuals held on remand comes with the normative regulations concerning visit entitlements. As a rule, in the Polish legal order an individual held on remand may be allowed a visit after the authority under whose charge he or she is detained has issued a visiting order. A refusal to issue a visiting order for an individual held on remand to see a close relative is a decision taken in the course of enforcement proceedings for which there is a separate appeal procedure, different from the basic form of control. Special grounds are also provided for such a refusal.

The aim of the study is to elaborate on conditional release (parole) in view of the evolution and development of contemporary criminal executive law. One of the objectives of the study is to contemplate on the meaning of the notion of criminological forecasting as well as the rules and the way to set its direction. The study also investigates the problem of realization of political-criminal assumptions which can be formulated for the institution of parole and the influence of these assumptions on the regulations determining the content of parole.

Judicial penitentiary supervision is one of many precautionary measures applied to corrections institutions, securing their proper, specifically lawful, operation. Books of authority on law of punishment infliction hold that penitentiary supervision is an instrument of control and supervision, used with respect to liberty deprivation means. In the discussion aimed at defining penitentiary supervision, one must raise the issues of the scope of supervision and its legal criteria. The tasks so defined make up a conceptual framework and bring to the fore the axiological foundations of the institution in question. This operation, apart from its theoretical value, makes it possible to bring order to and describe in greater detail particular measures provided for within penitentiary supervision. This, in turn, may improve its functioning in the longer term.

Classification is the process of dividing convicts sentenced into groups according to certain criteria by directing them to the proper type of prison and imprisonment system and by their proper distribution within the prison. The aim of this treatment is to create the best possible conditions of working with convicts, to counteract the harmful effects of demoralized convicts on other inmates as well as to ensure personal safety. The article presents the basic legal problems in issuing and verifying the classifying decision.

The study examines the penalty of restriction of liberty. The sanction in question occupies a unique position in the Polish catalogue of principal penalties as the so-called intermediate punishment, between a fine and a custodial sentence. Over the last forty years or more the penalty has changed considerably, mainly as a result of difficulties with its application and enforcement as well as its still modest share in the sentencing structure. The aim of the study is to present changes in the substance of the penalty, beginning with the criminal codification of 1969 and ending with the major amendment to the Criminal Code of 1997, which entered into force on 1 July 2015.

Opracowanie prezentuje powstanie i rozwój kary pozbawienia wolności w Polsce do XIX wieku. Dawne prawo polskie, w zakresie szeroko rozumianych kar na wolności, przewidywało kilka znacznie różniących się między sobą form izolacji. Różnice te były konsekwencją podmiotów, wobec których mogły być stosowane, sposobu wykonywania, konsekwencji zastosowania (środek hańbiący czy też niehańbiący). Różne było także miejsce jej wykonywania — mogły to być lochy, twierdze, zamki, klasztory, więzienia, wynajęte na ten cel karczmy czy też własny dom skazanego. Kara pozbawienia wolności, stając się sankcją, wyraźnie przyśpieszyła zmianę średniowiecznego systemu wykonywania kar opartego na karach cielesnych w stronę nowożytnych systemów karnych opartych na izolacji jako samodzielnej i dominującej sankcji karnej.

The study presents the development of imprisonment in Poland up to the 19th century. The old Polish law, in the scope of broadly understood punishments in the wild, provided for several significantly different forms of isolation. These differences were a consequence of the entities to which they could be used, the manner of execution, and the consequences of use (disgraceful or non-disgraceful). The places of its execution were also varied. These could have been dungeons, fortresses, castles, monasteries, prisons, taverns rented for this purpose, or the house of the convict. Imprisonment sanctions becoming markedly accelerated, changed the system of medieval execution of penalties based on corporal punishment in the direction of modern penal systems, based on isolation, as an independent and dominant criminal sanction.

Suspended sentence in Polish criminal law has afairly long traditionThis institution has found its place in the Penal Code of 1932 (Art. 61–64), the Penal Code of 1969 (Art. 73–79), as well as — in asignificantly expanded form — in the Penal Code of 1997. Suspended sentence of imprisonment has in the course of the last several years become the main means of penal policy in our country, leading to awhole range of problems. The aim of the paper is to analyze the very far-reaching modification of this institution which took place in connection with the adoption of the Act of 20 February 2015.

The aim of the study is to discuss the most important problems related to the assessment of the level of risk of recidivism, taking into account actuarial methods, psychometric methods, and idiographic clinical trials. The point is to show tools that are intended not only to predict criminal behavior, but also to be an indicator of effective interventions aimed at social reintegration of convicts and thus a permanent form of preventing recidivism. These instruments are of particular importance for controlling crimes committed under the influence of sexual preference disorders.

The aim of the paper is to present the purposes of carrying out the penalty of deprivation of liberty in the light of the current criminal codification. This issue is one of the most difficult discussion fields within the penitentiary law. The attempt to establish the aims of the penalty of deprivation of liberty on the realization stage primarily has arelevant practical meaning but the theoretical meaning is also important. Thorough assignments in this passage determine the way of interpretation of overall view of institutions that are connected to the content of the penalty of deprivation of liberty. These assignments point to the basic terms of reference of penitentiary administration. They are also one of the crucial indicators for the trends in penitentiary policy. The aims of carrying out the penalty of deprivation of liberty in the Executive Penal Code of 1997 were treated in aspecific way because they were specified in aseparate chapter of the Code entitled “The aims of the execution of penalty” (Article 67 of the Executive Penal Code).
